Kai
[to Cole] You couldn't just be happy with the top score, you had to rub it in my face!
[to Jay] Do you know how long it took me to make that?! Three days. Three days!
[to Zane] It's an unsaid law, okay? You don't touch a man's robot!
[to Kai] How am I supposed to strike fear in this? [shows that his ninja suit has dyed pink] IT'S PINK!
[As the ninja argue with each other, Wu enters, sees them and opens the bathroom door to reveal Lloyd; He laughs sinisterly. The ninja stop arguing and see some spices, tools and detergent]
KCKai, Cole, Jay, and Zane
[gasp] You did this?!
Boys, I get first dibs on…
No dibs. I put him up to this for today's lesson. I wanted to show you the destructive power of rumors and that jumping to conclusions can only lead to trouble. Did you ever think to find out if the accusations were true?
Uh, no offense, Sensei, but let me jump to this conclusion: today's lesson is lame.
Yeah, why can't you just teach us to paralyze your enemy with one finger, or find out if a man is lying by the twitch of his nose?
Because not all lessons are about fighting! And I… misplaced my lesson book.
[Kai sees a book sticking out of Lloyd's back pocket and takes it]
Kai
You mean this lesson book?
It was the perfect plan, until you had to show up and mess everything up and-
[Cole closes the door on him]
[over the speaker] If you're done fooling around, I could use you guys on the bridge. We do still have a snake problem to attend to. Over and out!
Kai
It's one thing to let the son of your nemesis live with you, but having my sister here? I mean, come on! I thought this was a NINJA headquarters!
You do know I can hear you. Over and out!
You know, whether it was in a lesson book or not, we used the destructive power of rumors to our advantage.
Kai
And now the Serpentine are further away than ever from getting their act together.
You know, I don't think we would've gotten out of there if it hadn't been for Zane.
Don't thank me, thank Lloyd. If it hadn't been for his "laundry skills," we all would've been found.
[Everyone laughs. Lloyd comes in with Zane's ninja suit, which is now white again]
Well, it took me twenty loads, but your suit's no longer pink. [to Cole] And to show that I'm sorry, Cole, I got you a can of nuts.
Uh, haha, yeah. Don't think I don't see what this is. When I open this, a bunch of snakes are gonna pop out, right? Yeah, no thank you.
[Cole opens the fridge, only for fake snakes to pop out at him. Everyone laughs]
First, I'll stomp on his tail. Then when he turns, a thunder clap to his ears. Then when he's stunned, I'll disarm him.
Too late, he's already hypnotized you and now you're under his control.
Or he's already put you in a squeeze.
Kai
Or spit on you with his hallucinatory venom. Trust me, bad stuff.
[groans] Uncle, what's the best way to stun a Serpentine if you don't know what kind they are?
Sadly, it was the Sacred Flute you four carelessly lost.
Hey, no, no, no, we didn't lose it, Pythor stole it.
Whatever the case, without it, I fear we have nothing to combat their powers. We may have prevented them from uniting in the past, but they will try again, and one day they will be stronger.
Don't worry, Sensei. I've almost reached my Full Potential, and when I become the Green Ninja, we're not gonna need any magic flute.
Kai
You're gonna be the Green Ninja? Hahaha, don't make me laugh.
I thought it was decided that I was destined to become the Green Ninja.
Oh, the only thing decided about you, Zane, is that you're weird.
[The ninja start arguing]
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's in the box?
[The ninja stop arguing and gasp in excitement at seeing their new suits]
Whoa! They've got, like, armor!
Kai
I love the gold highlights!
The material is really light and breathable.
[upset] Oh, nothing for me?
Um, you get, uh, the box.
Kai
[sees the Samurai] Huh? The Samurai?
[The Samurai crashes, and Kai runs after him]
SXSamurai X
Testing. Testing? One, two...
[The Samurai takes the helmet off, revealing Nya]
Kai
[surprised] Nya?
[puts the helmet back on] Steer clear, ninja! Don't look... [takes the helmet off] ...at me.
Kai
I don't understand. You're the Samurai?
It was always a boys' club. You never let me try to help, so I found my own way to be a hero. Are you mad?
Kai
Mad? Of course not. It's just, all this time, I've been trying to protect you and you've never needed it. You're amazing.
[lightly punches Kai's arm] Girl power. You're not gonna tell the others, are you?
Kai
But we had a bet. We said whoever caught the Samurai would be the Green— [sighs] Of course I won't say anything. How'd you make all this stuff?
You'd be surprised how much spare time I have waiting for you guys to come back from your missions. You better head back before anyone gets suspicious. We'll have to rescue Lloyd another day.
[She gives him the weapons]
Kai
Nya, whenever I get in trouble, the other three always have my back. But you...just be careful, will you?
Kai
Are you hurt?
You okay? [Zane sighs and looks at the blueprint] Hey, what...
[Zane opens his chest to reveal a control panel, making the others scream in shock]
Kai
You're... a robot?!
All this time, and I never knew.
Uh, guess this explains why you're always acting so weird. Right?
The reason I never had a sense of humor was because my funny switch wasn't on. [turns on his funny switch and starts dancing and singing] Hello, my baby, hello, my honey, hello, my ragtime gal, send me a kiss by wire.
[Jay laughs as Zane turns off his funny switch and sighs sadly]
Uh, it just makes you more special. You're still the same Zane. Just more, uh… gears.
Kai
No matter what you're made of, you're still our brother.
In fact, I bet it even makes you an even better ninja.
Yeah, and how cool is it that I can honestly say "My brother is a Nindroid"?
[to the Treehorn Queen] You will not hurt my friends! There is nothing that will hold me back! [starts to unlock his True Potential, turning light blue] I know who I am!
Kai
What's happening to him? Was he programmed to do that?
I've never seen a robot do that.
Zane's unlocked his True Potential.
[Zane uses his Ice to freeze the queen and falls to the ground]
Kai
You should've seen yourself.
Heh, I've never seen anything like it.
This must be what Sensei meant by unlocking our hearts. I remember now. I remember everything. I remember my father and how he cared for me. I remember where I came from. And I feel stronger for knowing.
I'm so jealous. His powers are so cool.
We have our very own Nindroid.
[They all cheer]
Watch out, Pythor. We're coming to get you.
[Kai, Cole and Zane arrive to confront the Serpentine]
Kai
Not so fast!
Really? That's the best you got?
Kai
I couldn't think of anything on the fly.
How about "Time to burn" or "Jump on this fire ride?"
Kai
Well, next time, you lead.
Kai
Oh, yeah? If you can catch up.
Oh, come on. You gotta follow my lead.
They got the first one, but there are three more, and we just need one to stop Pythor. They have a map, and we don't, so they question remains: how are we gonna find them first?
I still can't get over the fact that you were the mysterious Samurai. Is anyone else blown away like I am?
Kai
We're over that. Can we move on?
Someone's a little hot under the collar.
It appears his impatience is because he has not found inner peace and unlocked his full potential like you and I have, Jay.
Kai
Great observation, Mr. Roboto, but Cole hasn't found it either.
Kai
You've unlocked it!? Oh, why am I the only one!?
No, I figured out where I recognized the Fangblade from. I have a picture of it.
Kai
Oh, haha, is that it? Heh. Good.
LLou
Okay, from the top. Five, six, seven, eight. [plays some piano keys]
Kai
Bop till you drop!
Shake it till you break it!
Move it till you lose it!
LLou
[stops playing] Stop, stop! Ugh. If my ears weren't attached to my head, they'd be running away! Kai, love the energy, hate the hair. [hits Kai on the head with his cane]
Kai
Ow!
LLou
Jay, you're giving a lot, but I need more! Zane, you're like a machine. Don't change anything. And Cole, try to act like you wanna be here.
[whispering to Kai] He's worse than Sensei Wu!
Kai
[wearing the Green Ninja suit] FIRE! Unlock Fire! Uh, Fire go! Shoot flames! Oh, come on, everyone else can do it. So can you. BRING HEAT!
[The other ninja see him and laugh]
Very nice. Perhaps if you tried the phrase "Fire dork," maybe it might work.
Kai
[removes the mask] How long have you all been watching?
The Green Ninja suit. That's awesome!
Kai
Well, I was looking for some kind of clue from Sensei and then I found this.
But you know only he who is foretold to face Lord Garmadon is destined to be the Green Ninja, and only he should wear the Green Ninja outfit. So Sensei would most likely be very—
Kai
I know, I know. But I thought if I just tried it on, it might help me see my True Potential. It's not fair that you guys have unlocked your cool powers and I still haven't.
Dad? Why do you have four arms?
[Everyone cheers]
But how did you survive? How did you discover the key to unlocking your powers?
Kai
I knew when I had to make a choice. I wanted the Fangblade so badly, to prove I was good enough to become the Green Ninja. But then I figured it out: all of my training to become the best ninja wasn't in preparation to become the Green Ninja. It was... to protect him.
[He looks at Lloyd while everyone else realizes what he means]
What? What is everybody looking at me for?
[She, Kai and Cole bring the weapons in front of Lloyd, and they react by levitating and emitting green lightning]
Lloyd is the Green Ninja. I had thought it would be one of you, but it was him the whole time. It all makes sense. Not only have you four been chosen to protect the Golden Weapons, but also to protect the Chosen One.
[realizes something] That means...
The battle lines have been drawn, brother. Sadly, our family has only become more divided. Brother versus brother, and now, son versus father.
Hehe, this is heavy and all, but whatever happened to the FANGBLADE?!
[In Ninjago City, Spitta is being chased by the ninja]
[The ninja surround him and hold him at weapon-point]
Thought you could joyride through town and not be noticed, eh? Where's the last Fangblade?
SSpitta
I don't know what you're talking about.
Kai
You know what it is. The fourth Fangblade. When Pythor finds them all, he plans to unleash the Great Devourer.
SSpitta
Oh, that Fangblade. Haha, you're too late. Pythor's already there now. He's probably already digging it up. If I were you, I'd start preparing for the worst, because when the Great Devourer is awakened, there will be nothing it won't consume!
Won't that mean it'll consume you too?
SSpitta
Ah! Please, you have to stop him. That snake is crazy. I don't wanna unleash the Great Devourer. I'm a snake, not food!
Kai
Is it really too late to stop Pythor from getting the last Fangblade?
SSpitta
You're days behind him. There's gotta be something else you can do!
Kai
Oh, that was too intense. All that action makes you so thirsty.
There's no time to rest. We need to warn people before it becomes bigger.
Bigger? Bigger!? That thing in one big bite crushed our entire ship! We need to save as many as we can. Uh, uh, we'll find some kind of refuge, somewhere safe to hide. Ooh, the Serpentine Tombs. Yeah, they're underground. Sure, we'll be without sunlight for months, but they're perfect.
You know as well as I do, we have no chance at stopping that thing!
Kai
Hey, stop it! Listen to yourselves. Is this what Sensei Wu would've wanted? Us fighting? Running and hiding? Giving up?
But he's not here anymore.
Kai
But his teachings live on. Sensei once told me it's not the size of a ninja in a fight, it's the size of the fight in the ninja. All this training, all of these battles we've had with skeletons and Serpentine. We've persevered through so much, we can't just give up now. A ninja never admits defeat, a ninja always picks himself up when he's down. Which is exactly what Sensei Wu would want us to do right now.
But how do we destroy a snake of that magnitude?
Yeah, it's not like we have an extra Sacred Flute lying around to charm it. Or wait, haha, how about one of our awesome Dragons? Oh, I forgot, they took off and left us high and dry. Or, hey, what about our Golden Weapons? Which will do nothing against a snake that size. Heh, oh, we are so hooped.
Ah, Jay's right, we would need a weapon so big.
Kai
Or an idea that's even bigger! Ha! Jay, you're a genius! You thinking what I'm thinking?
Probably not, but go ahead.
Kai
There's no time. I'll fill you guys in on the way.
Kai
We're going to destroy that snake once and for all.
Kai
Did you guys notice on his forehead? It has a weak spot.
Oh, great, let me make a note of that. Giant snake has wee, itty-bitty weak spot that'll be [raises his voice] …TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET AT BECAUSE THE THING IS TOO RIDICULOUSLY HUGE TO DO ANYTHING TO STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!
[takes a deep breath] Yes.
[with his feet in water] My feet... I can't feel my feet.
Kai
[tired and battered] There was so many of them. And they wouldn't stop.
[putting oil in his gears] My gears locked up several times. I didn't even know my gears could lock up.
[groans] I don't even have enough energy to play video games.
Oh, but I thought you were going to train me when you got home.
Sorry, champ, but we can't until we make rent. How close are we, Jay?
[checks the jar] Is this jar getting bigger? We're not even close!
And our rent is due tomorrow.
I can pull a double shift.
Maybe I can sling a few more pizza pies.
Kai
And maybe I can make a little extra if I do the human piñata… [the others stare at him] Ugh, don't ask.
Great, then our priorities are set. Tomorrow, we make rent.
How about you help out and fetch me some more ice, huh?
